Rodent Control in Pasadena, CA
Hearing scratching in the walls? Finding droppings in your pantry? Pasadena’s warm climate allows roof rats and house mice to thrive year-round. Armed Exterminators has specialized in safe, effective rodent removal for 28 years, protecting homes and businesses throughout the San Gabriel Valley.
Why Pasadena Gets Rodents
Pasadena’s Mediterranean climate creates ideal conditions for rodent infestations:
- Year-round breeding due to mild winters
- Abundant food sources from fruit trees (citrus, avocado, fig)
- Older homes with mature landscaping provide shelter
- Dense neighborhoods allow rodents to travel between properties
Our Proven 3-Step Rodent Control Process
1. Comprehensive Inspection & Entry-Point Assessment
We thoroughly examine your property to identify:
- Active runways and nesting sites
- Entry points (gaps as small as ¼ inch)
- Damage to wiring, insulation, or stored items
- Conditions attracting rodents
2. Targeted Removal & Elimination
Our licensed technicians use:
- Strategic trap placement in attics, crawl spaces, and wall voids
- Tamper-resistant bait stations for exterior perimeters
- Safe, humane methods that protect children and pets
- No indiscriminate poisoning that can harm wildlife
3. Exclusion & Prevention
Long-term protection includes:
- Sealing entry points with steel wool and hardware cloth
- Installing door sweeps and weather stripping
- Trimming vegetation away from structures
- Removing attractants like pet food and water sources
When to Call a Professional
Don’t wait until the problem worsens. Call us if you notice:
- Nocturnal scratching or scurrying sounds
- Droppings near food sources or along walls
- Gnaw marks on wiring (a serious fire hazard)
- Nests made from shredded materials
- Pet food disappearing overnight
- Grease marks along walls or baseboards
DIY methods often drive rodents deeper into walls, making elimination more difficult. Our licensed technicians completely eradicate colonies and prevent re-entry—guaranteed.
